An angry God- a Judge severe —
How just, how holy is the Lord!
While christians hope with humble fear,
Let sinners tremble at his word.
His law condemns the wicked now.
And goodness seals their awful doom;
But wrath, tho' here unseen, and slow,
Will burst, and burn beyond the tomb.
Then how may hope and peace be found,
My trembling, anxious heart inquires; —
A hope secure on gospel ground,
No phantom which the world inspires?
Dear Saviour, friend of sinners, hear,
And lift on me thy smiling face;
Chase from my soul each doubt and fear.
And bid me taste thy cheering grace.
---Alternative verses---
Almighty God- a Judge severe —
How just, how holy is the Lord!
While christians hope with humble fear,
Let sinners tremble at his word.
